• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1505848/good-im-chat-solution-for-pasting-code - 2009 year

Today we use CommFort which can be used for group, user chatting and have ability for share images and show it's preview in chat window, that's all features we use.

We looking for modern something.. maybe separate client or browser based solution that:

• Allow share screenshot (drag and drop) with instant preview on other side ( maybe also capture it )
• Paste code snippetts
• Notify about new bug from bug tracker (Redmine)
• Notify about new commit from repository (VisualSVN)
• Store room chat history on server and retrieve it on connect like in Jabber

Possible variants:

1. Google Wave
   Today it's opensourced and can be installed on own server
2. Jabber server + some client
3. IRC server + some client
4. Anything else ?

Answer 1

Quassel IRC is not web app, but solves some problems

Is a modern, cross-platform, distributed IRC client, meaning that one (or multiple) client(s) can attach to and detach from a central core -- much like the popular combination of screen and a text-based IRC client such as WeeChat, but graphical.

It allows multiple users to connect to single core, each with own accout, so in core keeps all chat logs. And again it just IRC.
